BSH HOME APPLIANCES AND GROWTH SCOUTBEE ON HOW STARTUPS CAN ENABLE CORPORATES TO FIGHT DISRUPTION - B2B LEADER SERIES

Joerg facilitates this webinar with Mario Pieper of BSH Home Appliances and Growth Scoutbee’s Gregor Gimmy and Christian Heinrich about how large enterprises can solve mission-critical problems faster by thoughtfully integrating top startup solutions. They discuss making a shift from early stage incubation to strategies that more systematically integrate top startup solutions via partnerships, licensing and acquisition.

During crises like Covid-19 top start-ups may be a critical resource for recovery, providing quick solutions where they’re needed most. Supply chains are in turmoil; businesses are getting crushed; millions of jobs might be disappearing. On top of all this, the looming public health crisis threatens to claim as many lives in total.

As opposed to established incumbents, top start-ups have an advantage in this sort of agile problem solving. They have unique, often patented intellectual property, billions in venture capital to fund their risky innovation projects, a bare-bones workforce, and some of the most talented engineers and managers.

In this webinar we discuss how start-ups could help by (a) directly supporting governments with innovative and fast solutions; but (b) even more importantly for the purposes of this discussion, start-ups could help thousands of corporates with their extremely difficult problems.
